Default Vernon Motors COPO Chevelle

I have a car friend in the Vancouver area. We were talking about COPO Chevelles and how he rode in a friend's COPO Chevelle when it was new. Turns out it is the same one that Fred Nolan bought and took down to St. Charles, Illinois. There is a magazine article on the car. When brand new the car got headers, 4.88 gears and transmission rework. Rick was pretty impressed with the performance at the time and the re-connect with the car. Small world. Just a conversation, a light comess on and it puts things together. Light green COPO Chevelle, automatic on the column, Vernon Motors. Bingo. That's how we found my buddy's Beare Motors COPO Chevelle in the Calgary area. A casual conversation with a guy about the orange Beare Motors COPO being in the Calgary area. Bingo again.
